can't lie no more

hollies, the

the rain that beat down on the roof last night

was falling loud and strong

but that ain't why i couldn't sleep

my lies were fighting with the truth last night

i've tried for far too long

i think the time has come to speak

the time has come to speak

'cause baby i can't lie no more

though i know it causes you pain that i can't mend

last night i said i loved you but i lied to you again

oh

baby i can't lie no more

and baby don't you cry no more

don't forget the time when our love was deep and wide

i always will remember how it was before it died

oh

baby i can't lie no more

though there is sadness in your weary face

we used to laugh a lot

and i hate to see it end

i know the world can be a lonely place

when the laughing has to stop

i won't fall in love again

i won't fall in love again

and baby i can't lie no more

though i know it causes you pain that i can't mend

last night i said i loved you but i lied to you again

oh

baby i can't lie no more

and baby don't you cry no more

don't forget the time when our love was deep and wide

i always will remember how it was before it died

oh

baby i can't lie no more

oh

baby i can't lie no more
